Title: Do All Patients With Coronary Artery Disease Benefit from Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors?
Abstract: Cumulative evidence supports the use of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors for stable coronary artery disease in patients with and without heart failure. The dose and unique properties of ACE inhibitors, trial data, differences in trial design and demographics, may all contribute to variable responses in clinical outcomes. Pending direct comparator clinical trials between a tissue ACE inhibitor vs a plasma ACE inhibitor, evidence indicates that both ramipril and perindopril can be recommended for secondary risk prevention.
